See how one SolarBrain night works.
We’ll start with the original SolarBrain example so the logic is easy to understand. Then switch to “Try Your Own Numbers” and model your own tariffs, generator dependence, battery recharge and savings assumptions.
Original SolarBrain scenario
A full night, step by step.
10 kWh LiFePO4 battery
20A utility grid
10A generator
$0.54/kWh generator

55A DC Bulk Charging
With SolarBrain
$0.75
Without SolarBrain
$0.20
SolarBrain invests $0.55 more on inexpensive utility-grid flash charging here to avoid burning $2.70 of expensive generator energy at dawn.
